This one's puzzled me and I'm sure there's a simple answer:
For address and transactions etc. I find a lot of people using all lower case (which is a pain for me as I do not have front end/back end integration. E.G.: joe smith 123 main street anytown, us 12345 Is there a reason for this? Is it a fraud security issue? |

And while we're on the subject, these drive me nuts too. On a car, it's brakes, not breaks. It's flares, not flairs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
